He has something about a Princeton dorm being as posh as a Trump resort. <BR/><BR/>I don't know about Princeton, but where I work, the cost of room and board for a student in the dorms is about $30 per day. <BR/><BR/>I would be very interested to know what IBM spends on room and board for its execs and professionals when they are on the road. <BR/><BR/>Something tells me more than $30/day.capemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00327687293859434403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31670799.post-6445818921022126242008-12-30T11:01:00.000-05:002008-12-30T11:01:00.000-05:00Talk about a pimp!

Is this the same Doc who was quite willing to work in public higher education his whole career, then pimp for the radical right after he retired with his Chair and his public pension?capemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00327687293859434403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31670799.post-53401752739791310332008-12-20T21:32:00.000-05:002008-12-20T21:32:00.000-05:00Can you believe this?

The government is completely out of control.<BR/><BR/>Using fear mongering,the Legislative Branch and the Executive Branch is trampling the Constitution.<BR/><BR/>I have other words for "rent seeking", but they aren't quite as kind. <BR/><BR/>Our government is going to spend us into prosperity. It's like paying credit card bills with other credit cards. And when this scheme can no longer be supported, the bill is going to come due. And when the bill comes due, the "Financial Crisis" is going to be like a speed bump compared to a high speed head on collision. And guess who is going to pick up the tab?<BR/><BR/>I've never been so pessimistic in my life.<BR/><BR/>Cash is king.<BR/><BR/>God help us.RWWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345147132602206121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31670799.post-6432589136887599382008-12-20T21:29:00.000-05:002008-12-20T21:29:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.RWWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345147132602206121noreply@blogger.com
